This book provides an excellent reference for all professionals working in the area of array signal processing and its applications in wireless communications.   Wideband beamforming has advanced with the increasing bandwidth in wireless communications and the development of ultra wideband (UWB) technology. In this book, the authors address the fundamentals and most recent developments in the field of wideband beamforming. The book provides a thorough coverage of the subject including major sub-areas such as sub-band adaptive beamforming, frequency invariant beamforming,

The latest research and developments in robust adaptive beamforming Recent work has made great strides toward devising robust adaptive beamformers that vastly improve signal strength against background noise and directional interference. This dynamic technology has diverse applications, including radar, sonar, acoustics, astronomy, seismology, communications, and medical imaging. There are also exciting emerging applications such as smart antennas for wireless communications, handheld ultrasound imaging systems, and directional hearing aids. Robust Adaptive Beamforming compiles t

Speech is a natural and therefore privileged communication modality. Safety and convenience issues require hands-free, eyes-free speech-based human-computer interfaces to manipulate complex functionalities and devices. For example, in cars, applications include entertainment, telephony as well as more advanced functions such as automatic spoken language dialog systems for in-vehicle navigation. With a seamless speech input, such interfaces bring an increased comfort but have to face several issues: degradation of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the microphone, reverberated speech signal, an
